The first beta made its rounds the same day iOS 26 was announced, and Apple has officially launched beta 2 with some improvements and enhancements. As with most beta releases, Apple is working mostly on stability and bug fixes, but has tossed in a few changes and extras here and there that you might not find unless you know where to look.

These are not likely the final adjustments, given that iOS 26 doesn't launch publicly until the fall. However, they are indications that Apple is actively listening to early user feedback and making tweaks accordingly.

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) is one of the best US tech stocks to buy now. On June 24, Apple released the second developer beta of iOS 26, which introduces significant improvements to the ‘Liquid Glass’ user interface and addresses a key complaint regarding the readability of the Control Center.
